Instructions

Positioning:

1. Sit on the edge of the chair with your back straight and feet flat on the ground.
2. Place your hands at your sides or lightly on the edges of the chair for balance.
3. Keep your core engaged and ensure your body is stable.

Movement Instructions:

1. While sitting upright, extend your right leg out straight in front of you, keeping the foot flexed. Your leg should be parallel to the floor.
2. Slowly lower your right leg back down to the starting position without letting it touch the ground.
3. Repeat the kick with the right leg for the desired number of repetitions (e.g., 10-15 times).
4. Switch to your left leg and repeat the same kicking motion.
5. Maintain a controlled movement throughout the exercise, focusing on using your hip flexors and quads.
6. Ensure your back remains straight and avoid leaning back as you perform the kicks.

Tips:

- Keep your movements smooth and steady to avoid straining.
- If you're a beginner, start with a lower number of repetitions and gradually increase as you gain strength.
- Ensure your chair does not slide to avoid any accidents.
